Objectives: Understanding the factors for guardians to determine vaccinating their child with Hib and PCV7 vaccine. This will allow us to make effective intervention to raise the vaccine coverage rate. Study Design and Methods: Guardians with babies who visited four medical institutions with different subsidiary for Hib and PCV7 were included in this study. We asked mainly on general understanding of the two vaccines, the factor to determine vaccinating their child, and influence of cost of vaccination on decision making. During the study period, these two vaccines were suspended for approximately a month due to the suspect of death case after simultaneous vaccination of Hib and PCV7. Thus, we conducted additional questionnaire to survey the influence of the suspension. Results: Majority of guardians agrees to pay 3,000 yen and subsidies had an effect on the willingness to inoculate two vaccines.
